I have been a lifelong Westie owner, and have experienced puppy training to senior care as a pet owner. I have also owned and cared for a variety of animals: fish, small animals, reptiles, and amphibians! In addition to loving and caring for my own pets, I have cared for and done simple training with the pets of friends and family. My goal is for you to be able to build and maintain positive, safe routine so your pet feels secure. I have some experience administering some pet medications due to owning a senior dog with health issues, and would be willing to learn new procedures to assist your pet's health and well-being. In addition to pet care at home, my pasr work experience in retail Pet centers and as a custodian means that I am understanding of what is necessary to maintain a safe, clean space for your pet as part of the drop-in. I am currently working full-time as a teacher, so my availability will be limited to weekends until summer. During summer, I will have full flexibility to help you care for your pet, especially in the mornings! I am willing to do meet-and-greets prior to the service to familiarize myself with your pet and home. Please let me know if you have any preferred routes for walking due to past encounters, etc.
